Ingredients
  

  • 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls 1 package
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

For Garlic Butter Topping:

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking dish with parchment or lightly grease.

Prepare Filling:

  • In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, mozzarella, ½ cup parmesan, mayonnaise, pepper, and garlic powder.

Assemble Sliders:

  • Slice the entire block of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally (do not separate). Place the bottom half in the baking dish. Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the bottom layer. Cover with the top half of rolls.

Make Garlic Butter:

  • In a small bowl, stir together melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and 2 tablespoons parmesan.

Brush and Bake:

  • Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the tops of the rolls. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 5–10 minutes until golden and melted.

Serve:

  • Let cool slightly, then cut into individual sliders and serve warm.

Notes

  • Make Ahead:
    Assemble up to 1 day in advance. Cover and refrigerate, then bake just before serving.
  • Variations:
    Add cooked spinach, bacon crumbles, or a layer of marinara for an Italian twist.
  • Serving Suggestions:
    Serve with salad, chips, or cut veggies for a simple lunch or party platter.
  • Allergy-Friendly Options:
    Use dairy-free cheese and mayo alternatives if needed. Check roll ingredients for allergens.
  • Storage Tips:
    Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in oven or air fryer for best texture.
